Poor man's ipod speakers.

 by dkfa
Ever needed a pair of speakers for you ipod that you wanted on ebay? Costs too much?
Well...in this instructable, this the cheapest ipod speakers you'll ever find.

Note: I found out this was on instructables already. But I dont think its practical. http://www.instructables.com/id/Low-cost-everywhere-portable-Speakers-for-every-MP/

I have an iPhone, with External Speakers.. so it actually sounds good, and is much louder than the iTouch.

Plus, I got subwoofer in my backpack that I plug it into. :D

I used an old CD and traced the two circles before cutting them out.

Mediocre instructable, You might want to reread your descriptions, check for spelling grammar mix-ups, etc. Your photos are a little blurry, try using the macro function on your camera.. 3/5 stars..

You might want to publish a few more instructables/forum topics to better the site and gain some respect before you go around shooting your mouth off. I mentioned some constructive criticism for Dkfa to improve his instructable. Most of which you could use on your only instructable.

bumpus in reply to bestbballrebounder1Nov 1, 2008. 7:18 AM
Then you shouldn't be on this site.

wolf555hound in reply to wolf555houndJan 4, 2009. 3:06 PM
soz, my comp froze, i meant 13, and i tihnk bumpus is right....
bumpus in reply to wolf555houndJan 4, 2009. 7:19 AM
You have the maturity of a 1 year old..
xACIDITYx in reply to bestbballrebounder1Oct 30, 2008. 4:45 PM
I meant grow up in maturity. You seem like you have the maturity of... oh... say, a two year old?
bestbballrebounder1 in reply to xACIDITYxOct 30, 2008. 8:40 PM
um no acctualy a two year old doesnt know how to type
xACIDITYx in reply to bestbballrebounder1Oct 31, 2008. 5:41 AM
Like I said, Grow up in maturity. You can have the physical structure of a 12 year old, but you have the mind of a 2 year old.
bestbballrebounder1 in reply to xACIDITYxOct 30, 2008. 3:16 PM
grow down
jayman1310 in reply to bestbballrebounder1Jan 2, 2009. 2:56 PM

jesuislebomb in reply to jayman1310Jun 5, 2009. 3:39 PM
I agree. Can we get an instructable on witty come backs like that?
jayman1310 in reply to jesuislebombJun 5, 2009. 10:44 PM
WOOP! I got a reply on my comment! YES!
dkfa (author) in reply to bumpusAug 15, 2008. 2:22 PM
ummm dude. The pics arnt blurry.and there isnt really anything to correct. So...what are you saying?
bumpus in reply to dkfaAug 15, 2008. 3:26 PM
I'm saying your photos could be a little more clean. I'm not saying they are the worst, I'm just saying that the camera could be held a little bit more steady, perhaps having someone take the photos with you cutting for example... Just some constructive criticism..
codester in reply to bumpusAug 16, 2008. 7:35 AM
That's not steadiness, that's unfocused. I actually thought the pics were pretty good.
bumpus in reply to codesterAug 16, 2008. 9:00 AM
Its just mo opinion and I welcome you to disagree with my statement! :D
codester in reply to bumpusAug 16, 2008. 9:20 AM
Okay! :D

Whats the point...
craig3 says: Nov 24, 2008. 1:20 AM
this doesnt really make speakers does it? I mean it only pushes the sound into a more directional manner, doesn't make it any louder, only to where you point it
dkfa (author) says: Oct 30, 2008. 5:26 PM
